They did an amazing repair job on my skis last year and I will be forever and did it to them. They're always friendly have great local knowledge and are experienced in all aspects of gear fitment. read more

This year, I decided not to fly my Volkls out to Colorado, so I went rental shopping around Lionshead for a good performance set. Thankfully, I stumbled across Performance Sports, and one of their awesome staffers, Bullitt who hooked me up with a nice deal on some great gear! This may seem small to some, but all their benches lift up for storage, which is a HUGE plus in my book. Now I don't have to stop at a locker to drop off my regular sneakers/boots...I can just leave my kicks right there in the rental shop. When I returned later that day, swapping skis for shoes was an easy process... I was walking out the door and off to some après ski pubs in no time! read more

Performance Sports - Storefront - Ski & Snowboard Shops Near Me - Vail, Colorado

If you are looking for a place to wax or tune up your skis, this is the place to go. We were in town as part of a big ski trip organized by our cousin Michelle. We mentioned we needed to get our skis waxed and tuned up but every place in denver said it would take a week to do it. She recommended this place. I brought my skis in on Sunday night and asked for a wax and tune up. They told me that I didn't need a tune up, just a wax. I really appreciate the honesty because they could have charged me more for a tune up and I wouldn't have blinked an eye. Next morning on the way to the gondola, I stopped by and my skis were all ready. We also had friends who rented their skis from there and loved it! Definitely use this place if you are in vail! read more

I have been going to this shop for years. They are the best. Vail skiing can be quite intimidating, and I only recently learned how to ski. I'm solidly intermediate and trying out blacks here and there. I only ski intermittently. Every time I've been in over the past few years, the pro who helps me always figures out which skis would work best for me. Their rates are unbeatable for Vail and the equipment they provide is top notch. I'm very grateful for their expertise and kindness and will only go to them when I make it to Vail. read more

We have been going to Performance Sports for 20 years. We live in the Southeast and have been going out to Vail once a year with our 3 kids since they were itty bitty. It's a beautiful and charming shop with an Austrian motif. We love that the shop is family run and operated and that we are greeted year after year by the same people. They are all knowledgeable, helpful and genuinely kind people. We've rented all our gear there and had great service every time. It's also super convenient to be able to leave your skis and poles in the shop after a day of skiing. read more

We love these guys! It's become our family tradition to work with Performance Sports and they never miss. Quick, efficient, top quality gear, fair prices, and all the cool winter wear you'll ever need. The people who work here are always on it. read more

I've been going to Performance Sports for several years and the guys that work there are AMAZING! They are so kind, attentive and really know their equipment, which is top notch! They have adjusted my rental boots and always make sure I'm happy! They made suggestions when I was ready to purchase my own boots and suggested where to go and who to ask for. I am actually purchasing the skis I rented all season from Performance for great price TOMORROW! I am so happy to support this shop! They NEVER fail to call me by name and ask about my ski day experience. You can't beat the location in Lionshead as they are minutes from the slopes, Starbucks, Vail Ski School, restaurants and all the top Apres Ski Spots. 5 STARS ALL THE WAY! read more

I recently purchased a used pair of skis on Craigslist and noticed on my first run that one of the toe bindings was loose. I went to Performance Sports to check it out and they determined that one of the mounting screws had sheared off at the mounting plate. They spent about 20-25 min fussing around with it and ended up replacing the mounting plate with one they dug out of a spare parts box. Total cost was $10! These guys are great. I came back that night and had a full tune up for $40. My skis are like new again. I'll be back next time I'm in town. read more

Best ski tune in town!Also a great selection of ski clothes including Descente, marker and more! Convenient location in Lionshead Village

Boots didn't fit properly and they didn't adjust the skis to match the boots. Everyone in my group had to help in getting my boot in until I finally return them after some nice falls. No discount when i complained. Don't go there read more

My sister and I have been going to this shop since 1979. She has bought 2 ski outfits, and I have bought 2. Also, goggles, glasses, and always rent my skis there. I always get great service, excellent skis, and it is easy to get in and out. I would not go anywhere else. Bart and Yettis is 2 doors down, and great for apres ski. Bought a really cute ski outfit last week, at a great price. read more

I wanted a new pair of ski pants so I went to a locally owned shop. I found what I wanted but not in my size. JP's wife actually called DNA skiwear to find out where I could get a pair. She sent me to her competitor across town and made nothing on the sale. This is like Miracle on 34th Street! Performance Sports will have my loyalty forever. read more
